TORONTO, Nov 17 (Reuters) - Canada's main stock edged higher
on Tuesday, building on Monday's rally, led by strength in
heavyweight financial stocks and helped by positive sentiment
created by better-than-expected earnings from U.S. retailers.

"After you have a blowout day like you did yesterday and
then you had eight days in a row prior to that of dropping, one
has to wonder if it is a dead-cat bounce or one has to wonder if
there is follow-through, and so I can understand the market
being tentative today," said Barry Schwartz, portfolio manager
at Baskin Financial Services.
